#1

I have two long lists and i need to find out what non duplicate items each list has.


set list1 to {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
set list2 to {4, 5, 6, 7, 8}

Then it should return {4, 5}

#2

Hi,


set list1 to {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
set list2 to {4, 5, 6, 7, 8}

set resultList to {}
repeat with i in list1
	if contents of i is in list2 then set end of resultList to contents of i
end repeat
#3

actually 4,5 are duplicates


set list1 to {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}
set list2 to {4, 5, 6, 7, 8}

set resultList to {}
repeat with i in list1
	if i is not in list2 then set end of resultList to contents of i
end repeat
set resultList2 to {}
repeat with i in list2
	if i is not in list1 then set end of resultList2 to contents of i
end repeat
set theresults to resultList & resultList2
